YOUTH PROGRAMS

The Urgent Need for Youth Financial Education

If young people are not taught how to make informed financial decisions today, they will be more likely to make mistakes tomorrow. Therefore, a strategic approach to promoting youth and young adult financial capability is needed. Through the F.R.E.S.H young adult curriculum we provide participants with the skills and know-how to get and use money to reach their goals now and as they make the transition into college/work. We do so in a fun, energetic, relatable and “street-smart” way using hip-hop and pop culture.

Mission Statement

F.R.E.S.H.’s role/mission is to increase both the quantity and quality of information necessary to make rational financial choices – information that, for whatever reasons, have not been readily available – so that our primarily urban youth, unbanked, and underbanked population can be exposed to universal financial concepts and practices that will allow them a better understanding of how to manage their finances and build wealth for generations. This in turn will help our participants make positive contributions to themselves, their families and their society in a more complete, satisfying and productive manner.

About F.R.E.S.H.

Punctuated with thought-provoking examples, our presentations and seminars are known to enable participants to set and achieve goals, establish values to live by, and to face failure in order to handle success. F.R..E.S.H. presents a unique and dynamic formula for understanding financially literacy through hip-hop and pop culture and gives students the tools necessary in retraining their mind for success. Our program is designed to transform lives on the personal, inter-personal, family and community levels.
